History

Over forty years of industry leadership

As celebrations of our first 40 years as Alberta’s premier new home warranty provider wound down(making the Program the most experienced and well established new home warranty provider in Canada), we took a look back at how we got started.

The Alberta New Home Warranty Program was founded by a group of visionary Alberta homebuilders who, with no government influence or regulatory pressure, recognized the need to create a “made in Alberta” package of warranty protections and establish mechanisms to bolster the reputation of the homebuilding industry. How? By holding themselves accountable to specified standards of performance and professionalism.

Even as the Program grows and evolves to sustain our relevance and expand our value as the future unfolds, the solid foundation we established through our first 40 years remains firmly in place.

The first organization of its kind in Canada, the Program helped change the way builders in Alberta think about building new homes and the way Albertans think about buying them.
